Discussion of U2's future: new singles, new tour, etc.

Awesome. Let's hope they're progressing nicely. Catherine Owens was spotted in a flurry of activity there a couple of days ago as well, so there's speculation that some promo activity might be going on for the first single.

she's probably a candidate to do a video i'm sure. After U2:3D she'l be on a role

Hopefully she does something again like Original of the Species. She may even direct a few of their new concert films as well.

Originally posted by flowerchildu2 were at hq on the 11th/12th as well, macstripey & I were lucky enough to meet them

brian eno and daniel lanois were there too and we heard two new songs through the thick doors of the studio, they sounded awesome! (we also heard bono singing live with someone, probably edge, who played the guitar)
they are moving their stuff to france now, so I guess they're definitely in the final phase!

hehe, I still can't believe it, you bet we're still in a daze!
only bono and edge came out late at night (or early in the morning, lol),
but they were really nice.

very hard to tell!
we were all pressing our ears against the doors (must've been a funny sight )
and trying to hear as much as we could. one sounded very powerful, fast drums,
typical edge sound.. I'd say it was louder and wilder than vertigo
the other song had some chorals in it, if I heard it correctly.. but really can't put it
into any previous era - all new stuff, me says!

"Fast drums, louder & wilder than Vertigo". Nice! Sounds "sonically delicious" to me! I am that much more excited for the release. I think were in for their best since Achtung Baby.

Congrats! I'll echo Harry and say you guys are very very lucky!

VERY happy to hear that you'd characterize the new songs as nothing like previous eras. Fast drums, wilder than Vertigo--absoklutely can't wait to hear the new sound.
